Tony Pollard Thrives As Lead Back In Week 8
2 years agoDallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard excelled as the lead back in a Week 8 win over the Chicago Bears. Pollard got most of the backfield touches with Ezekiel Elliott (knee) out for the game. Pollard ended up with 14 carries for 131 yards and three touchdowns. He added a catch for 16 yards on his only passing game target. It was a better game than Elliott has had in years, but once "Zeke" is healthy, he and Pollard will certainly be back to splitting backfield duties.
